Jerry,
The Grantmaking booth was the first one requested several months ago, and the rest of the
team that worked on the
foyer set up with me approved (Kris and I went over this several times). We have
plenty of space for ASUS and the three tables. I think the foyer area looks great!
Thanks, Ellie

Ops, I did have some memory that schwag team &
Wikihow's request
And as I understand the rest of table is used by ASUS, who kindly provided us some
computers, and probably set up an Internet kiosk for everyone (if possible)
Sorry, I never heard of the request from the grantmaking team

Jerry,
I had confirmed with Tango and Kris on the booths we needed in the foyer a long time
ago.
I went over everything with Kris already. There will be a booth for the
Wikimedia's Grantmaking Team, the WMF schwag team, Wiki-how (one of our sponsors). So
3 tables are allocated for them.
Thanks, Ellie

Hello
As I know, there is no record of such grantmaking booth in JCA foyer or anywhere inside
auditorium
And all booths & stands should undergo a strict review of the management in JCA,
so I don't think we have any rooms to make changes to accomodate such booth in such
short notice.

Greetings, Wikimaniacs!
We encourage you to join us at the Wikimedia Foundation grantmaking booth.
The booth will be located in the Jockey Club Auditorium near the registration area, where
you can take a break from the heat. The booth will be active from Friday morning until
Sunday afternoon.
Friendly volunteers and Wikimedia Foundation staff who are involved with all of Wikimedia
Foundation's grants programs will be available to answer questions about grantmaking
or offer information. If you are currently receiving funding or are interested in
requesting funds for your activites, please come by and introduce yourself. Ask questions
or offer your feedback! If you're a Wikimedian who is just interested in learning more
about grantmaking in the movement, this is also a great opporunity to learn more.
Please come by and meet us! If you are interested in meeting with somebody specific, you
may check out our booth's page on the Wikimania wiki for more information about who is
planning to be at the booth and when:
